Using a Different System?
Sylius is a modern e-commerce platform for PHP, based on the Symfony Framework. Sylius source code is hosted on GitHub.
This guide will walk you through the Sylius installation process on a fresh CentOS 7 Vultr instance using PHP, MariaDB as a database, and Nginx as a web server.

Then build the front-end assets by running:
yarn build

. Initially, they will be set to apache.
sudo vi /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf
# user = nginx
